I have a problem with an Nvidia card in an Acer Aspire a715 laptop with Ubuntu 18.04.
Proprietary driver Nvidia 390 is installed with nouveau blacklisted.
Secure boot is disabled.
When switching to Nvidia I have frequent freezes - first mouse pointer frozen on screen, menu items nonresponsive, but second mouse pointer moving.
Sometimes there are also freezes with black and white checkerboard pattern on screen for a while, but display recovers afterwards.(These only happen in a while.)
The issues last a couple of seconds to maybe a minute.
After checking the Xorg log I see the following error messages:



[   414.516] (--) NVIDIA(GPU-0): DFP-0: disconnected
[ 414.516] (--) NVIDIA(GPU-0): DFP-0: Internal TMDS
[ 414.516] (--) NVIDIA(GPU-0): DFP-0: 165.0 MHz maximum pixel clock
[ 414.516] (--) NVIDIA(GPU-0):
[ 816.796] (EE) NVIDIA(0): The NVIDIA X driver has encountered an error; attempting to
[ 816.796] (EE) NVIDIA(0): recover...
[ 820.808] (II) NVIDIA(0): Error recovery was successful.
